review 1: Amazingly practical advice that helps with the day to day, moment to moment consequences of being in that kind of pain. Good combination of the abstract with actual simple and approachable exercises to make living with heartbreak more bearable and at least give it some purpose. I agree with her that being broken in this way does open one's heart to being able to love more deeply--- even romantic heartbreak and working through these exercises helped me to feel greater connected to my young children when they have emotional pain from disappointment and heartache. Which does happen, even to a three year old!
review 2: This book offers exercises and a fresh perspective on the pain of heartbreak. The tone was gentle and consoling but not patronizing. Although there ... moreis no "instant solution" to heartbreak, this is one book that makes the journey a little easier to bear.It is true that going through this sort of pain opens my heart to feel all sorts of other pain and to be more compassionate. One day, I saw my very young cousin suffering an unwarranted angry outburst from her father and it felt like my heart broke with hers. less
